I'm based in the Middle East and was really looking forward to this since announcement we use the Singapore region and currently get 105ms pings to our instances. Yet, how come I get 135ms pings to Mumbai despite it being MUCH closer (~1930km vs 5840km to Singapore) ?

Lol. I am in South India, and when gaming, i frequently get better ping to Singapore than other parts of India; Also performance varies widely depending on my ip and the time of the day. The routing in local isps is atrocious. I thought the situation would be different for commercial connections but your experience seems to suggest otherwise.

Run traceroute and see where it's going.

What is your src IP? Both 52.95.67.208 and 203.83.223.31 are less than 80ms for me from Mumbai.
